Use of the Agilent Multimode Sample Introduction System (MSIS) for Simultaneous Hydride Determination and Conventional Nebulization Using the PerkinElmer Optima 7/8x00 Series ICP-OES
Author(s)Alejandro Amorin
The Agilent Multimode Sample Introduction System (MSIS) is an innovative option for both PerkinElmer Optima ICP-OES instruments and Agilent ICP-OES and Agilent MP-AES instruments. In this application note, we will show you how MSIS could help saves set-up and analysis time and also keep the lab as productive as possible.

This column shows that a Raman plate reader paired with partial least squares regression can simultaneously quantify glucose, fructose, sucrose, and ethanol in yeast fermentation samples, using turbidity-matched calibration standards to correct for yeast-induced turbidity, and offers a rapid, label-free, high-throughput method for tracking sugar consumption and ethanol production in strain screening, media optimization, and process development.
This column, the second installment on highly substituted benzene rings, shows that tri- and tetra-substituted substitution patterns can be distinguished by whether the ring bending peak is present and by the position of the in-phase aryl C-H wagging peak, which shifts according to how many adjacent hydrogens the ring carries.
How do ions and water interact at the atomic level in nanochannels grafted with polymer brushes using all-atom molecular dynamics simulations? Siddhartha Das of the University of Maryland and his team are working on answering this question.
